Kathy's Place is excited to host our second annual Thrive & Bloom Gala Event on Wednesday, May 6th, 2026 with a focus on "Spoil Mom on Mother's Day". It will be a fantastic and memorable evening filled with an amazing group of community supporters, leaders, philanthropists, and friends. This event experience will include appetizers and cocktails; a gourmet curated dinner served family style (of course); a wine garden; a whisky toss; a fantastic raffle opportunity; a live auction; a photo booth; an online silent auction; and heartfelt moments of shared philanthropy. We would be honored to share the evening with you. With your help we can empower single moms and their families to Thrive and Bloom!  

The gala provides a vital source of support for Kathy's Place, ensuring that we can continue providing critical resources to help families move from survival to stability, and from stability to true thriving, and we can use your help in creating a memorable and successful event. Ways you can help:

Sponsor the event.  As a sponsor, your organization would receive meaningful visibility through branding recognition, sponsored content, social media spotlights and event and "night of" perks -- all while making a direct impact on families in our community.   This year, we’re excited to introduce something new, The Legacy Circle. It is a simple, heartfelt way to honor sponsors who choose to walk with us year after year. Click HERE to see our Sponsorship Deck and learn more about Unique Sponsorship Levels and Benefits.

Donate an Item for our Live or Online Auction. Help Us Build an Unforgettable Auction! The success of our annual auction depends on the generosity of supporters like you. We are currently seeking exciting "biddable" items to feature in our live and silent auctions. Your contributions directly support the mission of Kathy’s Place. We are interested in anything fun and unique and this year we have a "Spoil Mom on Mother's Day" Theme!

Buy Tickets or Sponsor a Table: Please join us. It will be a memorable night, and we cannot wait to share the evening with you!
